	ALR Dual Pentium, BT747 SCSI-2, Connor DDS-2 Dat, 3 Seagate Hawk 2gig
	drives.
	

>Description:

	90% of the time you access the dat drive via dump, FreeBSD goes off
	and scrambles the other disks in the system.  This sucks, and has
	happened to me several times.

	And how the hell can I do a fsck -b with the install disks, I had
	no way to specify the backup sectors, so had to do a complete 
	re-install!  Ugh.  Also how come fsck doesnt try the well known
	backup sectors when it goes (i.e. 32, 65535.. )
	

>How-To-Repeat:

	dump to /dev/rst0 during system operation anytime.
